And he took it apart and made two 3.7 saddle packs out of it!!! The only problem is that they are still just a little too long and pushes the speed control and receiver a little too far forward but nowhere near as bad as a SMC single cell lipo jammed on to one side of the car. We need a pack that is 34mm X 34mm. Oh, and the two packs came out at only 8mm tall. Very low.
Perhaps OD would be so kind as to post up some pics of this, would be interesting to see. As to someone making a saddle lipo I dont really see the demand, all the new cars (BMI, 12r5, CRC) except the serpent and xray are all 1cell lipo frendly. I just cannot see how a battery company can make enought profit for such a small segment of the market.
